I am currently working on updating calibre with support for using the system mathjax installation. calibre supports this natively, but generates a manifest including file sizes and an etag covering the entire contents, which it uses to refresh the mathjax files when serving it via the ebook server. This means that calibre should really be rebuilt whenever mathjax is updated, or that information will go stale. What do you think?

When it does, the calibre-server assets need to be rebuilt with the new content hashes for the mathjax code. Add the slot without a revbump. Any systems that don't pick up on this update will be fine, because the chances are extremely high that calibre will continue to be updated many times before the next mathjax update, so no real point forcing a metadata-only rebuild.
